Network Configuration

To set video streaming

You can control the data transfer rate according to the camera video streaming type and network bandwidth.

1 Click <NETWORK> 

<STREAMING SETUP>.

The STREAMING SETUP window appears.

2 To complete the setting, click the [Apply] button.

The settings are saved.

<Streaming Type>: You can select a protocol for video transmission from the <TCP>, <UDP(Unicast)> and <UDP(Multicast)>.

-<TCP>: It is a general purpose protocol used for a transmission that requires reliability. Since it provides a connection based communication between the sender and recipient, it provides high reliability against transmission data loss. However, it is inappropriate to transmit a large amount of data in real-time because of its transmission overhead. It enables reliable data transmission over xDSL and cable network at a relatively slow speed.

-<UDP(Unicast)>: It refers to transmitting data to only one receiver (1:1).

-<UDP(Multicast)>: It refers to the data transfer protocol in one-to-many (1:N) between the transmitting and receiving terminals. Although it alleviates the network load, it requires <Multicast> router. For more information such as whether the network over which the camera is installed supports <Multicast>, ask your network administrator.

UDP: It is a protocol appropriate to transmit a large amount of data such as multimedia data in short time. However, it provides higher transmission efficiency than TCP especially over high speed connections faster than 100Mbps.

With multicast activated, it is not possible to perform video recording search. Audio cannot be transmitted to the camera through the microphone.

Multicast backbone (MBone) is not supported, and the camera can only be used in a LAN- based multicast environment.

<Streaming Control>: You need to set the bandwidth to an appropriate value according to the data rate of your network for smooth video streaming.

-You can set the <Bandwidth> by selecting one from <Unlimited/5Mbps/3Mbps/1Mbps/ 600Kbps/300kbps/150Kbps>.

-If your network provides data rate equal to or higher than 100Mbps, it is recommended to set the <Bandwidth> to <Unlimited> or <5Mbps>. If you are using a broadband Internet connection, set the <Bandwidth> to <3Mbps> or <1Mbps>.

-If you are using low speed xDSL network, set the <Bandwidth> to <600Kbps> or lower for smooth video streaming.

-The maximum number of images per second in the video setting menu is automatically determined depending on the selected <Bandwidth> value.
